Hello:
This is a continuation of this thread on xarchiver 0.5.4.14 and the use of passwords with compatible archive formats. ie: those that support passwords.
... this may probably be the fastest/lightest and most versatile archiving utility for Linux.
It is mature and still works a wonder, which is why I have insisted on using it.
It has gotten better yet.
The actual maintainer (Ingo Brückl) kindly accepted to add code so that it would be easier/more straightforward to add a password to a file generated via the right.click -> 'Compress ...' action in PCManFM.
I expect that this also works in OpenBox and Thunar.
Now, creating a file from PCManFM with xarchiver 0.5.4.22 ('Compress ...') will open the 'Add files' window which now has the 'Options' previously available only when creating a 'New' file from xarchiver itself.
ie: 'Actions' -> 'Include subdirectories', 'Delete files after adding' | 'Compression' (levels 1 to 9) and 'Encryption'.
Source code here, a *.deb package arriving eventually at your neighbourhood Devuan/Debian repositories.
Best,
A.

Hello:
Thank you ...
You're welcome but it is really all IB's merit.
He is the one who has been keeping this very nice/useful (ca. 2005) application running and up to date for the last 9/10 years.
Best,
